My New Discoveries 6- Foster The People


Foster The People


Seemingly a part of Foster The People's charm is a distinctive lack of information to be found about them, former in LA at the end of the summer 2009, their debut single (as yet to be released) "Pumped Up Kids" has sleeper hit of the summer written all over it, and sets the bar very high for future songs... It's simple beat and "God get it out of my head" melody make this destined to be a crossover/alternative radio hit a la Concretes, Phoenix or Peter, Bjorn & John. The Chorus' simple structure of "All the other kids with the pumped up kicks, better run, better run, out run my guns" and then shamelessly followed by some... guess what... whistling. "Pumped Up Kicks" will hopefully be released in time to accompany the indian summer in autumn 2010.

This soon to be unforgettable anthem is available free from their website fosterthepeople.com
